Pierrot Quilt Finished

 It has been wet and miserable all day so I have not been able to take a very good pic of the finished Pierrot but here it is. Just a reminder that the Pierrot designs are from the Quiltery.
Pierrot Quilt
This quilt was constructed using quilt as you go techniques, specifically Method 3 from my Hints and Tips. There is no hand sewing in this method.
Back of Pierrot
Each of the Pierrot designs was stitched over a 200 mm x 200mm ( 8 inch x 8 inch)pre stitched quilt grid design from Chrystal Embroidery. Anita is working to put them on her website for you to purchase at a good price.
I will let you know when they are ready for purchase. I used a different grid for very design.
Anita is also doing some 5x7 grid designs for those who have that size hoop.

I stitched around each design with rows of parallel straight stitching on my machine. The border was done with rows of free form wavy stitching, very easy to do with a walking foot.

Quilt Border
Each corner is one of the faces stitched on a 4x4 grid.
I am writing the tutorial at the present time and will have it out to those who receive my Quiltery  projects over the next day or so.

  1. Hi Vicki
    I love your Pierrot quilt, I have been following your blog for some time but I have never commented, I would love to be on your mailing list for updates and projects, can you please tell me how I go about it. Your embroidery is stunning, I absolutely love your Feathered Star from HoopSisters but unfortunately there is no shop near me participating so I have to wait until 2015 to purchase the designs. Thanks again for a wonderful and informative blog.
